Except Silas who evidently shrunk from his height of 6-5 @ Georgia, LOL !Every guy gets a padded inch?
This is one of college basketball’s most robust traditions.Every guy gets a padded inch?
All relative I guessThis is one of college basketball’s most robust traditions.
Height decreases by about 1/2 to 1 inch from the beginning of the day to the end of the day mostly due to disks in the spine losing volume and to some extent other joints being compressed. Plus for some people fatigue in muscles can affect posture. Tall people will lose more height than short people on average. Shoes vary in height as well. Some might increase height by 1.25 inches and others by 1.5 inches as an example. He’s also a teenager with extreme height genetics and could easily still be growing now. Plus height measurements can vary slightly depending who does the measuring.Reibe measured 6'11.75" in shoes 4 months ago. So either he hit a growth spurt, or...
Check Rothstein/Hurley interview posted by @Blades. Hurley conveyed Solo and Reed, Jr. height not in sneakers, and might have given one more. IDK if he is 'padding' reality but why cannot we get a picture of each player in NCAA on a height chart - doesn't have to look like a police lineup but we would all believe height if we saw them in socks with a real measurement.Every guy gets a padded inch?
But our "official" list might be without sneakers; conversely, theirs could be with. We don't know but pretty soon we can see Silas and Solo at the same time on the court - if they are both 6'4" we will know.Except Silas who evidently shrunk from his height of 6-5 @ Georgia, LOL !
